Salinity Gradient Energy: Current State and New Trends
In this article we give an overview of the state of the art of salinity gradient technologies. We first introduce the concept of salinity gradient energy, before describing the current state of development of the most advanced of these technologies.

Feasibility of Pressure-Retarded Osmosis for Electricity Generation at Low Temperatures
A membrane-based technique for production of pressure-retarded osmosis (PRO) is salinity gradient energy. This sustainable energy is formed by combining salt and fresh waters.

Modeling and Optimization of Membrane Process for Salinity Gradient Energy Production
When hydraulic pressure was added on the feed side of the membrane in the otherwise conventional pressure retarded osmosis (PRO) process, the production rate of the salinity gradient energy could be significantly increased by manipulating the hydraulic ...

Reverse electrodialysis – Multi effect distillation heat engine fed by lithium chloride solutions [PDF]
Salinity Gradient Heat Engines (SG-HEs) have been proposed as a promising technology for converting low-temperature heat into electricity. The SG-HE includes two different processes: (i) a salinity gradient process where the salinity gradient between two

Interactions among salt marsh plants vary geographically but not latitudinally along the California coast. [PDF]
The strength of species interactions often varies geographically and locally with environmental conditions. Competitive interactions are predicted to be stronger in benign environments while facilitation is expected to be stronger in harsh ones.

Hierarchical nanochannels based on rod-coil block copolymer for ion transport and energy conversion
Designable block copolymer (BCP) membranes are emerging for reverse electrodialysis to capture the salinity gradient energy between seawater and river water. However, present BCP based nanochannels are usually prepared from flexible blocks.
